Sales representative by day; author by night. This is the real story behind selling one of life's necessities. This is the story of The Toilet Salesman. Their official name is toilet or water closet but they have many vernacular names. Crapper, John, or Thunder Buckets are just a few. You can hardly go through a day without one but still you give them no respect. When they function properly, as in flush and forget you never give them a second thought. When they clog, leak, or break, they demand your immediate attention. Selling toilets is not romantic or likely to be the subject of the latest Hollywood action flick. Selling toilets is real everyday hard work to many plumbing sales associates in our country and around the world. Millions of people throughout the world have no access to toilets or even clean drinking water. In our everyday lives, toilets fall into that category of objects we just take for granted. This book contains information learned from almost twenty-five years in the plumbing trade industry. It is tastefully written, humorous, and filled with valuable information about toilets and the selling process. Once you have learned the contents of the narrative, you will dazzle your neighbors at the next block party about the inside story of selling toilets.

Although Thomas Crapper is most commonly associated with the invention of the flushing toilet, his models were in fact the result of a long line of improvements to earlier designs which date back to ancient times. This book is an ideal introduction to the history of the toilet, tracing its development from the primitive - and very smelly - privy maiden to today's one-piece, all-ceramic WC. Illustrated with superb photographs, this book tells the intimate story of the lavatory.

Water-Closets as conveniences are so necessary, and in their proper construction are so important to our comfort and health, that we think any research into their history will repay us by increasing our knowledge on the subject. It will be necessary in this paper to review, cursorily, other modes of convenience in countries where, and at times when, water-closets properly speaking were not in use. Naturally, we first examine the ruins of Egypt, where existed the earliest traces of civilization, for remains of water-closets. The small private and detached rooms which we find in the remains of Egyptian houses were probably used as privies. Ewbank, in his work on hydraulics, calls the summer chamber of Eglon, king of Moab, a water-closet. If we thought proper to follow the example of Ewbank we would call water-closets the private rooms which were in an isolated position in one of the halls, being near a door communicating with the other chambers. Sir J. Gardner Wilkinson says: "These rooms bear a striking resemblance to the before mentioned private room of Eglon." That the Greeks made use of privies in their houses is proved by an old writer from a passage in Aristophanes (Ecclesiaz., verse 1050). This was about four hundred years before Christ. The Romans, if not the first in art, the leaders in all that pertained to luxury and comfort, were the first, as far as we can ascertain, to use water-closets. In Rome we find four kinds of receptacles for excreta. Close stools (lasana) , in which the rich ancients sometimes used gold or silver bowls; vases (gastra) which were stationed on the roadways; public privies (cloacina) , of which Sir William Gell tells us there were one hundred and forty-four in Rome; privies (latrina), probably for private use. From their derivation we would infer the two classes last mentioned to be water-closets, cloacina being derived from cloaca, a sewer or drain, and latrina being a diminutive of lavatrina, a wash-bowl or basin. No doubt, as at the present day, the name included the room as well as the basin or receptacle contained in the room. Pompeii was covered with ashes and lava by an eruption of Mount Vesuvius more than eighteen hundred years ago, and among its ruins were found the most perfect remains of an ancient water-closet. Pompeii being a small town and a province of Rome, we would suppose the water-closets to have been more numerous and more elaborately ornamented in the capital city.
